16768. The Goodness Of God

1 The Lord is strong to help the weak,
Upholding those that fall,
Restoring those bowed down with grief,
And do­ing good to all.

2 Thy crea­tures look to Thee for food,
From day to day sup­plied,
And Thou dost for their sus­te­nance
With op­en hand provide.

3 The Lord is right in all His ways,
His works His love de­clare,
And He is nigh to ev­ery one
That breathes the trust­ful pray­er.

4 The hope of those that fear His name
The Lord will sa­tis­fy;
Their migh­ty Savior He will be
When un­to Him they cry.

5 All those that set their love on Him
Shall full sal­va­tion know,
But wick­ed men and wick­ed ways
The Lord will ove­rt­hrow.

6 My mouth shall bless the Lord my God
And all His praise pro­claim;
Let all unite for ev­er­more
To bless His ho­ly name.
